Fleury stopped 21 of 23 shots as the Penguins blew out the Red Wings 7-2 Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The Penguins bounced back nicely after being shut out by the Devils on Thursday, outshooting the Red Wings 41 to 23 while Fleury picked up his sixth win in his last seven games. Expect Fleury to have to work much harder if he's back in net Sunday against the Rangers with second place in the Metropolitan Division on the line.

Fleury will be in the crease in Saturday's road game against the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Fleury hasn't been great of late, posting a 1-1-0 record with a 2.58 GAA and .881 save percentage in his last two outings. The 31-year-old goaltender will look to get back on track Saturday in a tough road matchup with a surging Detroit team that has won three of its last four games, scoring at least three goals in each of those victories.

Fleury turned aside 21 of the 24 shots he faced in a 3-0 loss to the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
Unlike the past six games, when the Penguins averaged four goals per game, Fleury received no offensive support in this one. He has been known to have a down game after going on hot streaks, this seems to have been that game. Allowing the Devils, who are last in the league in scoring at 2.26 goals per game, to put three in on him won't sit well for the 31-year-old. Fleury will look to start another streak when the Pens travel to Detroit to take on the Red Wings on Saturday, in a game that has high playoff implications.

Fleury will defend the crease against New Jersey on Thursday, Tom Gulitti of The Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Fleury is riding high on a five-game winning streak in which he has logged a 1.77 GAA. While the netminder has been fantastic, it helps to have teammates who are scoring at will as Pittsburgh has potted 21 goals during his streak. While the 31-year-old has been known to throw out a clunker every now and again, his fantasy value is one of the highest at the position, especially against a Devils team that is last in the league in scoring at 2.25 goals per night.

Fleury stopped 16 of 18 shots in Sunday's win over the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Fleury wasn't tasked with the particularly heavy workload against the usually high-flying Washington offense, but he got plenty of support en route to grabbing his fifth straight win. It's the second game in a row he's made just 16 saves, but the wins keep on coming, so keep Fleury rolling.

Fleury made 16 saves in a 4-1 win over Philadelphia on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
After the game, Pens coach Mike Sullivan didn't address which goalie would start Sunday against Washington, but it given the historically light workload Fleury faced Saturday, look for the Flower to get the nod. He saw only nine shots on goal in the first two periods, combined.

Fleury will start against the Flyers in Philadelphia on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
He beat the Flyers at home on Jan. 21, stopping 29 of 32 shots in a 4-3 victory. Saturday will be a tough test for Fleury and the Pens, with Philly just four points behind Pittsburgh in the playoff race with one game in hand. Pens coach Mike Sullivan would not tip his hand as to which goalie will start Sunday against Washington. "I'm thinking about the game Saturday against the Philadelphia Flyers," Sullivan said.

Fleury stopped 25 shots in a 2-1 shootout victory over the Islanders on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
He came within five minutes and 25 seconds of his sixth shutout of the season. For his career, Fleury is now 18-for-18 when he can end a home shootout with a save. The Pens play three additional times in Week 24 -- including two at home -- look for Fleury to nab two of those starts.
